I don't intend to teach anyone any lessons. I just want
to pass on the knowledge I acquired by researching
the net and studying by myself, and if someone doesn't
agree with something I said please tell me.
I'm just a 15 year old dude! hehe
This is my first real lesson I hope you like it.

Pop/Rock) and Weird Things for Weird People
(Compositions). Check them out!

Hey people. I'm here to talk about arpeggios.
(An Example)
Cool Huh?
You CAN do that, and even more elaborate ones.
(Hard? I know I can't play that! hehe.. =P)
All you need to have is basic scales knowledge.
Oh and of course, practice study and a teacher
like me (hehe jk)
If you've been studying for a while you will have
probably heard of them.
(C Major Scale)
Yes! The old Do-Re-Mi you learned in school
is worth something!
First thing for Major Scales: you need to know
their formula to build them properly.
It is TONE-TONE-SEMITONE-TONE-TONE-TONE
-SEMITONE
T
T
S
T
T
T
S
Got it? NO??
ok..
What I mean by that is the interval between
one note and the other.
Between C and D there's one TONE, but between
E and F only a SEMITONE
A tone is equivalent to jumping one fret in the
guitar and a semitone is just jumping to the next.
Now with that formula you can build any major
scale!
C Major
D Major
F# Major for 2 Octaves (sharps can be major!)
The notes in any scale are divided into "graus"
, numbers, i dont know the word in english.. hehe
Knowing this is extremely important for
chord contruction and arpeggio theory
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8 (an octave up from 1, that is, same note)
You probably noticed I use C Major a lot. Well its
just cuz its easier for people to visualize
But ill variate. That was A major.
You probably noticed also scales follow
a graphical pattern in the guitar's fretboard.
I wont talk about that, but you should memorize
them
and connect them throghout the fretboard.
There are explanatory exercises on MSB on that.
You can also check in GPro's fretboard the scales
section.
There are some weird ones hehe
Moving on, now a bit of chord construction.
A Major Chord is formed by the tonic (1), which
gives the name to the chord and its 3rd and 5th
, and a minor chord by 1, 3b (one semitone lower
than 3)
and 5 as well.
To give it some spice you can add the 7th
or 7b (one semitone lower)
- these are maj7(major chord with 7th), 7
(major with 7b)
, m7M(minor with 7th) and m7(minor with 7b)
There are millions of other chord structures I won
't mention here such as augmented or diminute
, just research!
Now lets cut the bullshit (oops.. hehe)
Whats that good for?
This (Brazilian Metal Band's Angra - Carry On)
Notice the start on a minor chord then a major

-Try to find the pattern of chords-
Thats all folks. Remember to always study, researc
h, and practice!
One More Golden Rule: ALWAYS REMEMBER
--> In a major scale, 1, 4 and 5 are
major chords; 2,3 and 6 are minor and 7 is
diminished.
That way its easier to identify which scales to
use in a chord progression and which chords in a
riff.
Many Thanks.

C5 (Power Chord, no distinction between maj/min)
This is called pitch-shifting or harmonizing
